girl, eighteen
cut her hair off close to her head
she wears pyjamas all day
going back and forth from
coffee pot to bed
out of pyjamas she still looks sleepy
eyes lidded and half-closed
she is smirking or smiling
i can never
be sure
today she left in ripped fishnets and
jangling jewels
arms decorated with the
scars of anger she
took out on herself
i wonder what they take out on her
or where they take her out
do they buy her big macs or
packs of cigarettes?
do they call her girl, too?
